Man just going for irony right away, eh?

Whenever I do see the opposite and when the guy interjects all that’s said is “there’s a time and a place to talk about men’s issues” but like when is it then?

Probably not in the thread with the comic about womens issues being talked over by men, like you’re doing now, would be a good choice.

EDIT: I’ll eat the downvotes. Just wanted to say how embarrassing it is to be a man and hear ‘but what about men’s issues?’ used in a non-ironic way. Sorry ladies, you don’t deserve this crap. Also thanks for being the bulwark against fascism.

That said, when men were losing their jobs hey got told “learn to code” by callous and shitty journalists and women’s rights activists.

Where on earth has this happened?

The solution is so simple that you have to be abandoning it on purpose: promise men educations and to help them get employed, and you’ll get all the support you need.

So tell the men in charge to do that. We don’t live in a matriarchy, women fight the exact same fights you mentioned. You think women don’t get laid off just like men do? I’ve been in games for almost 20 years and I can tell you it’s not any better for the women in it.

There are so many issues with a Con government–like not even admitting climate change exists, that’s not great–and you mentioned many others.

I’m honestly tired of women bailing us out in these elections though, so I cannot imagine what it’s like for them to have to keep doing it.

But with Trudeau refusing to step down I have no choice but to vote conservative.

NDP, Green?

I’m willing to let Skippy axe the carbon tax and hopefully make living in this country affordable again. Ontario generally elects a provincial party that is in opposition, provincial liberals will get in and reintroduce cap & trade which will save us when the next liberal government is elected and tries to save the world again.

When we’re voting on abortion again, I hope the women in your life have a chat with you about how your vote effected them.

Up here in Canada as well. Almost exactly half of men, across all age groups, say they play to vote for the Cons. Last I saw it was 20% of women voting Con. I am incredibly embarrassed at my fellow men.

They use their mom’s last name.

I grew up in a house where my mother, my, and my stepfathers last names were all different. It caused small problem maybe… twice. It’s really not a big deal.

To be clear, that’s a Québécois(e) wedding, it’s not like that outside of there (but would be fantastic if it was.)

Do they take both names?

This happened in my family, to me, and yes. My middle and last names are my parents last names. Another person I know took the hyphenated version of their parents last names.

For sure.

It does not help that her…

And there it is, folks.

the slogan I’ve seen on some shirts, “good thing we are only looking for equality and not revenge” comes to mind.

Jesus Christ, I love that so much.

I’ll take the downvotes, but a large part of this is because she’s a woman. “One candidate (a man) can rant about gibberish while the other (a woman) has to be perfect.” doesn’t just apply to politics, this sounds like every office I’ve ever worked in.

I meant this part:

…what followed was weeks of relentless harassment flooding my inboxes, demanding that I be fired, claiming that “people like me should not exist.”

Some said they knew where I lived.

I forwarded every message to my managers, every time requesting four things: for advice and support on how to deal with the harassment, for CTV to issue a cease-and-desist letter to HRC, clarification on whether there were any rules against showing a keffiyeh or Palestinian flag on TV, and whether leadership stood behind my coverage.

Each time, I was met with silence or indifference.

If someone threatens my co-workers, I take it seriously.

However, the next morning I woke up to an onslaught of emails and DMs from HRC members who took issue with a visual detail: one of the people I interviewed was wearing a keffiyeh and holding a Palestinian flag. HRC labeled this man an “anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian protester,” and what followed was weeks of relentless harassment flooding my inboxes, demanding that I be fired, claiming that “people like me should not exist.”

Then, several months after the broadcast, my story had quietly disappeared from CTV’s website. The video report and copy had been unpublished without explanation or consultation and replaced with a short copy rewritten by a young, white male colleague. My name had been removed from the byline along with the quote from the protester. In doing so, CTV News breached its own Corrections Policy, which clearly states: “We do not, except in very narrow circumstances, unpublish articles or videos.” This policy is echoed throughout most journalism outlets. Online journalism is a part of historical records and archives. While incorrect information should be corrected and clarified, keeping stories online reflects a commitment to transparency, accuracy, and fairness.

How depressing. How is this legal?

I browse ‘all’ quite a bit, a few times a day, and I have had the same experience as you. I see more posts complaining about “.ml/tankies/etc” than I ever see problematic/whatever posts from them.

Papa bear!?

Yeah to be clear, I’m saying they’re just claiming that. Like I said, no proof, just ‘seriously we claim this, trust us.’

It’s ridiculous.

It’s terrifying how the government can just declare something to be a terrorist organization with no proof at all. Just ‘they raise, uh, money. For… uh… terrorism?’

I am seething with jealousy at how fantastic your hair alone looks.
